Support for Year 12 and Year 13 students to develop their mathematical skills and confidence and aim for an A* in Mathematics or Further Mathematics.
Benefits of the programme
Developing students skills and confidence to prepare them for their next steps in Mathematics and STEM.
Everyone is here for a reason. They’re all ambitious. They all want to get good grades. I mean, when you’re surrounded with such motivated people it makes you also feel like you want to achieve the same level standard. And it just pushes you to go farther. And that really builds your self-esteem, builds your confidence.
